I have an graphic element in the timeline that is supposed to remain in a static position on the screen after scaling, but the image drops off the bottom on the screen at the end of the timeline playing. (Looks like it dropped into a hole or something, straight down.) There is nothing in the property that instructs the graphic to do this position change. It plays fine in hype. It does this strange action in preview in browser and hype reflect. Also exported as widget in ibook and image drops. This is basic hype, no javascript involved.

It is falling because it is a dynamic physics body, so gravity is affecting it! You can fix this by selecting the element, going to the Physics Inspector, and changing the type to “Inactive - No physics applied”.
